        I've completely forgotten about the All-Star Batman comic. I never picked up the third issue. Let me know how that TPB is though.

          I probably would have put Joker as number 1 as well. No villain has been able to eclipse the hero like he did. The first Batman movie might as well have been called The Joker. Though the second film had even less Batman in it, splitting the time between Catwoman and the Penguin. Maybe Michael Keaton was the best Batman for so long because we hardly ever saw him have to act?! At any rate, Christian Bale has laid that argument to rest.

            Perhaps in the next two Batman movies, the next Joker can surpass Jack and maybe the new Harvey Dent/Two-Face will make a run for top villian.

              I think Ahhhnold as Mr. Freeze is easily the best villian of all time.

              [/sarcasm]

              I'm actually disappointed not to see the green Goblin up there. I really liked that character.

                Two-Face is one of the best villains in the Batman rogue's gallery. His origin episodes in the animated series were fantastic, along with Mr. Freeze. Too bad their movie debuts were so terrible.

                I thought the Goblin was done pretty well too, aside from that hideous costume. I don't know if he should be in the Top 10 though as there really was no emotional attachment to him. The best villains, in my opinion, have a sympathetic quality to them (Magneto, The Joker, Doc Ock, etc). In the Joker's case though, he is just the perfect foil for Batman and his character is over the top and incredibly entertaining. Plus Jack played the role perfectly.

                  Mr. Freeze and Two-Face were pathetic in the Schumacher films, along with everything else actually. I'm really looking forward to the next two Batman films under the wing of Nolan and company. The Harvey Dent/Two-Face and Joker story arc just sounds awesome.

                    As sexy as Michelle was in that gear, she needs to be out of the list. I would also get rid of Hackman's Lex Luthor. (Personally I think Michael Rosenbaum has created the quintessential Lex Luthor on Smallville) I would add Bullseye from Daredevil, and Scarecrow from Batman Begins.

                    I agree with Zod as #1. He was such a merciless, powerful, arrogant bastard, that you couldn't wait for him to get his, that why he was so great.

                    I hope Famke Janssen can get the job done as Dark Phoenix in X3. If she lacks the appropriate level of malice, then that will drag the film down some.

                        General Zod owns..Joker was too over the top & corny..Still a great performance by Jack..I'm glad decon frost made the cut..Still the best performance from Stephen Dorff.. My top 3 would be Frost/Bulls eye/Zod..

                          I'd take the Scarecrow over most on that list.


                          I am probably the only person in the world who really likes Jim Cary's Riddler.

                            The Riddler was ok. A little too much like the Joker for my taste, but he was acceptable. I'd place him in the top 15.

                              What is really sad is that Arnold's Mr. Freeze was not that bad, it is just that the movie was horrible beyond belief.
